Patent number: 7829424Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of fabricating an integrated circuit package having decoupling capacitors using a package design conceived for use without decoupling capacitors. The package is implemented with a minimal redesign of the original design and not requiring any redesign of the signal trace pattern. The invention involves replacing top and bottom bond pads with via straps and then covering the top and bottom reference planes with a dielectric layer having conductive vias that electrically connect with the underlying via straps. Planes having the opposite polarity of the underlying reference plane are then formed on the dielectric layer. These planes include an array of bonding pads in registry with the vias. Decoupling capacitors are mounted to the top of the package and electrically connected with the plane on top of the package and the immediately underlying reference plane without the electrical connections to the capacitors passing through the signal planes of the package.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2008Date of Patent: November 9, 2010Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Leah Miller, Ivor Barber, Aritharan Thurairajaratnam
